After my grandfather passed away in 2006 from bone cancer, I decided that this is something that I wanted to do and take care of others.. I saw the way the hospice nurses treated him, with love and compassion. Me being the loving and caring person that I am, decided that getting my CNA license would be best so that I could put smiles on others faces. It makes me happy knowing that I could brighten someone's day with simple gestures and comforting them. I'm most proud of myself for being the first in my family to attend college and still be able to help others. I currently live in Jonesboro. GA, and I graduate in the Spring of 2015. I'm always smiling, and open to learning new things, I feel being a young adult it's now my time to give back and take care of others that can't help themselves as much.
